Need Advice -- Joint Venture With Finanical Partner

To get my business started, an investor friend I know is financing the property and we would split the deal 50/50.

I am interesting in buying bank owned properties thru a broker/investor who owns his own rehab business for 8 years and he is a broker for 2 years.

My question is…..

When we buy the property, I have will use the realtor’s purchase contract. Who would sign the purchase contract since we are Joint Venture? Should I sign with my LLC or does my investor friend sign his LLC?

Thanks for reading and responding to my post.
